I figured the ATPL requirements would be the issue. I live somewhere remote that doesn't have a plane to rent. So I was hoping it would be an option to get hired on, then do some fun flying on the side to get a few extra hours.

Apply and see. Maybe even mention in your cover letter that you're willing to continue building PIC hours on your own time. Regionals are low on pilots, and 1500 hours of which a bunch are multi, I assume, is a solid number. People are being hired with half of that.

You so far out of reality you must be a clown.
Experienced king air captain with 6000+ hrs isn't being looked at let alone anyone with less time.
You're a lightweight haha

Upgrade on the king air and get the pic time there? Or get a king air captain job somewhere else? Get your ATPL, and some command experience, then you'll have the experience and licenses to upgrade at a 705 company.

Not true lightweight.

Huh? Did they change the requirements to be captain of a two crew airplane?

I'm saying get the ATPL signed off flying 703, then move to the 705 world. Otherwise it's a dead end FO job with a cheat code available (PICUS).

The 150 is a firm requirement. I was in a similar boat in that I needed more PIC time. I approached WJE with options but the black and white answer was “...thou shalt have the required PIC mins”. It is set is very hard granite.

Alright, stop nickel and dimming your hours like some kid who’s counting enough pennies to buy a candy bar... okay that was sarcasm but there is some truth to this. Do yourself and passengers a favour and get some real world PIC before getting a left seat job in a 705..what’s the rush getting to encore with 1000 hours..?? Get your ATPL in 703/4 and then go there. I fly with way too many FOs who do this and a year later write to me asking if I know any PIC jobs because they don’t have enough money to rent a plane or their company does not provide picus and I tell them every time...should have gotten your PIC on the multi before you hopped the fence.

A friend just got placed in the next ground school with 1000 hours instructing, no multi time other than the group 1 IFR, so you must’ve rubbed someone the wrong way.....
